There are fears that up to 40% of millennials may never be able to have tedious home improvement conversations.

Fewer and fewer people are able to own their own homes due to their fondness for bathing in avocados.

One commentator said, “There are worries that if this continues people may stop having tedious conversations about shelving, lighting and heated kitchen floors. People may find something different to talk about like literature, art an science. That’s a future none of us wants to contemplate.”

Stan Still of Rochdale said, “This generation are going to miss out on making a huge deal out of tiny insignificant things. Like when I arranged a huge party at my house for my mums 63rd birthday that was in no way connected to my new wet room.”

Bill Board, Social Analyst said, “How will people ever know the joy of hearing, in excruciating detail, about how someone negotiated a grand off the asking price for their house? And all those tedious conversations about tracker mortgages. You’ll be sorry because people like me are only able to talk about houses.”

There are fears that other pointless ways of showing off could be affected.

One commentator said that the bottom could fall out of the conservatory market. This could mean people stop having barbecues in order to show off their new hot tub.
